Summer Wrap-Up

What I've Been Up To:

Hello September, hello autumn, goodbye summer! This is my favorite time of year, when the days get shorter and the weather gets cooler and I feel like a person again. Despite suffering through the summer heat, I managed to accomplish quite a lot in the past few months:

I launched The Last Infinity in August, announced an upcoming scifi book with Rebel Satori Press that will be out in 2028 (links to follow), had a story published in a disability in dystopia anthology called Why Aren't You Dead Yet?, and made headway on a lot of future projects!


The Latest:

Latest Watch

Where to begin? I watch a lot of documentaries, far too many to name here. I'll call out Death of the Pastor's Wife and Maternal Instinct as the best ones I've seen this summer.

Latest Read

I also read a lot, and it would be a pain to list everything I've gone through this summer! The Lost Book of Lancelot and The Wolf and His King were two of my favorites from this summer.

Latest Listen

You all know that my two favorite podcasts are National Park After Dark and Tooth & Claw. I've been on the hunt for a podcast that is as engaging as those two (because I keep running out of episodes to listen to), and I think I finally found it: Redhanded. This podcast covers crimes, cults, mysteries, and so much more! Go check them out!


What's Next:

My 3rd book, a queer scifi horror, will be released in February 2027. In the coming weeks, I'll be announcing the title, dropping the cover and Goodreads link, and sending out ARC applications.

As mentioned earlier, I also have a queer scifi book coming out with Rebel Satori Press in early 2028 that's tentatively called Blood Ties, though that title may change. Keep an eye on my socials for more info in the coming months!

I'm also working on the lineup for the other self-pub books I want to release after my 3rd is out in the world. They're going through developmental edits right now, and I look forward to talking about them more in the future!
